structive influence. The poison it distributes
throughout the system attacks every vital force,
and breaks up the most robust Of constitutions.
Ignored, because but little understood, by most
physicians, i'm potently assaied by quacks and
cbaratans, those suffering from ii have little
hope 10 be relieved of it this side OF the grave.

approval of thousands. 1t is instantaneous in
afording relief in all head colds, sneezing hnuf-
fling and DISTRACTED breathing, and rapidly re-
moves the most oppressive symptoms, clearing
the head, sweeteniDg the breath, restoring the
senses OF smell, taste and hearing, and neutral
izirg the constitutional tendency of the disease
towards the lungs, liver and kidneys.
Sanforo's Radical Cure consists OF one bottle
